Ronan Grimes and Declan Slevin were among the big winners on the road in 2023, and it will be all to play for again this weekend.
On the track, Chris Burns, Richael Timothy, William Clifford and tandem duo Martin Gordon and Eoin Mullen were among the national champions crowned in 2023.
After a busy spring for many members of the Irish national team and Para-cycling Commission Development Squad, there’ll be no shortage of competitive racing come this weekend as riders look to make their mark and claim a national title.
The C category, H category and Tandem categories will be combined at the championships, with times on the track factored to provide the final results as per the official UCI standard.
